Beautiful Mutants 2006 (via Jaf Project)
Anamorphistic* art by Kelly M. Houle
* An anamorphism is a distorted projection or perspective; especially an image distorted in such a way that it becomes visible only when viewed in a special manner, such as from a certain angle or when specifically-shaped mirros (usually conical or cylindrical) is placed on in a specific spot on the drawing.
Trompe L'Oeil is a similar art term, French for "trick the eye". Trompe l'oeil murals are paintings, usually on a wall, (or ceiling, floor etc.), that when viewed from the right position, should deceive the viewer into thinking it is real.
